Part-time Summer Nanny

About Us

We are a busy, active family of four looking for a nanny who can keep up with a lot of day‑to‑day energy and be flexible, as our jobs can look a little different each day. Summers are a big highlight for us and are often spent at our lake cabin, enjoying water sports and time outdoors. Our oldest son is very active and loves sports, while our youngest shares Mom’s love of musical theater and plays.

We’ve been fortunate to have two wonderful nannies in the past, both of whom stayed with us for four summers, and we’re excited to find the next great fit for our family. We’re easy to work with, organized, and value open communication. Our kids are pretty laid‑back, well‑behaved, and fun to be around.

We’re looking for a summer nanny who enjoys staying active and understands that our kids are happiest and at their best when they’re kept busy and engaged. On days without camp, we’d love someone who is excited to get them out of the house, whether that’s fishing, bowling, mini‑golf, or other fun outings. Our boys have different interests, so finding a balance between sports, history, and art to keep both engaged is important to us.

Strong organization skills are a must, especially when it comes to making sure the oldest is prepared for camp each day with all necessary equipment, lunch, snacks, and water. We’re hoping to find someone who is self‑sufficient in navigating the city, actively participates in activities with the kids, and can encourage them on days when motivation is low. Driving is required, and the nanny will need to use their own car;

mileage is reimbursed.

Day‑to‑day responsibilities will vary depending on the boys’ camp schedules. Most weeks, the role will primarily involve driving the boys to and from camps and ensuring they are fully prepared each day with everything they need. On the occasional day when one or both boys are not attending camp, we’d love for the nanny to plan and lead engaging activities, ideally outdoors when possible, that align with their interests, encourage participation, and keep them active and engaged.
